Bay & Bay Transportation’s Million Mile Club:

We like to make sure that when our truck drivers reach significant milestones, they are recognized. Safety is extremely important in the transportation industry, so when our drivers travel over one million miles without any incidents, we make sure they are properly congratulated. In 2014, 16 drivers were added to the Million Mile Club and invited to spend a relaxing weekend at The Madden’s on Gull Lake Resort in Brainerd, MN.

Each truck driver was presented with an engraved plaque, personalized hat, and the choice of a watch, leather jacket, or ring; or an engraved shotgun, fishing rod, or golf clubs. Each driver was allowed to bring a guest as well to celebrate the achievement with.

This year’s One Million Mile drivers include:

  • Ben Houle
  • Bobby Dicasmirro
  • Brian Valentin
  • Brian Walling
  • Charlie Griffin
  • Ed Kane
  • Garry Brown
  • Gary Hogen
  • Gary Stewart
  • Jeff Strand
  • Mike Lyons
  • Nate Jensen
  • Ric McDermaid
  • Wojiech Gawiec

The celebration in 2014 also included a few very special honorees. This year, two truck drivers were acknowledged for having driven over TWO millions miles without an incident. Those drivers were:

  • Brad Bergquist
  • Carlyle Berhow

The weekend was a great chance for drivers to share experiences and bond over their careers. Ben Houle, first time honoree, had this to say of the Million Mile Club retreat:

“The whole weekend was awesome. They put us up in a waterfront condo and we had everything we could ask for. It was fun to get to know everyone better, from the other drivers to the owner of the company. You realize how down-to-earth everyone is. They pride themselves on being family, and it makes you feel good that they take notice of your accomplishments and recognize you for your hard work.”

We expect excellence for our drivers, but we also reward that commitment to the job. If you are looking to work for a company that expects excellence and rewards achievements and milestones, consider applying to Bay & Bay Transportation.
